Epson Introduces SureColor P5370 17-Inch Printer
12 October 2023
Epson has introduced its 17-inch SureColor P5370 professional printer featuring an improved printhead, a new ink set with an extended color gamut in dark blue hues, plus an advanced print engine for productivity, including sheet and roll capability. The new model replaces the SureColor P5000, the company said.
"Listening to market needs and incorporating customer feedback, we integrated the latest printhead and ink technologies that are optimized for photography into this new printer so professional photographers can maximize productivity, reliability and consistently produce the finest exhibition-quality prints," said Marc Aguilera, product manager, Epson America, Inc. "Designed to meet demanding needs, the SureColor P5370 is an evolution to the beloved SureColor P5000, adding improved reliability, deeper black density and wider color gamut in blue hues.
The SureColor P5370 combines an improved advanced MicroPiezo AMC printhead with Epson Precision Dot Screening Technology to consistently produce prints with smooth tonal renditions and the capability of reproducing the details captured with today's high-resolution cameras.
Its new 10-color UltraChrome PRO10 ink set in high-capacity 200 mL cartridges, including Violet Ink, delivers an extended range of blue hues and a wider color gamut. With dedicated channels for Photo and Matte Black inks, there's no ink switching, helping to save time and reduce ink waste. The printer's built-in Carbon Black Mode increases Dmax, allowing for rich blacks and exceptional contrast on glossy paper.
The printer includes a built-in roll feeder, auto cutter and a high-capacity cassette that accommodates up to 100 cut sheets from 8.5 x 11 inches to 17 x 22 inches.
